Grappling Hook
Finally! A Standalone Grappling Hook For Bukkit!
Compatible with Minecraft 1.8!
ATTENTION!
This project is now being updated and maintained on Spigot.
Features:
- No commands necessary.
- Pull yourself to locations.
- Pull entities to you.
- Pull items on the ground to you.
- Configurable durability on grappling hooks.
- No permissions required. (But are supported)
- No configuration required. (But is optional)
- Plug and Play.


How To Use:
Just throw the hook out onto a solid block, and when pulling it back in, you will be pulled to its location.
If the hook sticks into a mob or player, they will be pulled to you.
If the hook sticks into an item on the ground, the item will be pulled to you.
If the you reel in the hook when it is in water or still in the air, it will behave as a normal fishing rod.

Posted May 24, 2015The plugin is great, I really like it, however I think it should be a bit smoother and shouldn't have that small delay it has. Shotbow has a grappling hook like this, but the plugin isn't for download and the closest I could get was this plugin. If you want to see shotbow's click here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lbBG9P0-7wY (don't pay attention to the comentary)

Posted Apr 14, 2015Hey, just another note. I've found that the give command in 1.8 will replace whatever is in your hand with a grappling hook(so players be careful). Maybe adding a "command only works with no item in hand" option or something like that would help. I'm not sure if this is common issue or just a 1.8 issue. cant wait for an update tho. this plugin is great. i recommend it to all server owners!

Posted Apr 4, 2015Great!, Just a great little plugin, works well with the Spigot-build Bukkit 1.8. Only downside is the crafting recipe doesn't work in 1.8 but the /gh commands still give a grappling hook with proper durability that do what they're suppose to. Wishlist: - distance options in the config file.
Try it on 1.8 at : mc.mythicminer.info

The durability feature does not work. Also the hook only works 3-5 times out of 10, even if I wait until it becomes completely static and is fully attached to a block.
Can you please fix this?

Posted Oct 24, 2014@SnowGears could you make a config option that will make the grapple unhook from a player/mob after you pull it in. This way players won't be able to hook someone and spam pull them. If that's too much work then could you show me the code I need to edit to do so myself?
Thanks, and great plugin btw :D

Posted Aug 5, 2014@SnowGears you should make the distance the line go out when you grapple configurable! Also the speed at which the line shoots out

I noticed this bug is caused by a 2X2 grafting grid, the recepi only works at a 3X3 crafting grid
